Brief Description: "As the United States stumbles into a new era of nuclear deterrence, one marked by arms races with Russia and China as well as a nuclear stand-off with North Korea and possibly Iran, Ankit Panda offers an essential guide to how we might escape catastrophe - as well as how we might not." "A comprehensive deep dive into the complex dynamics of nuclear competition in an increasingly contested international security environment. Readers have much to learn from its detailed analysis, expert insights and creative recommendations for managing challenges and opportunities in the new nuclear age." Andrew Futter, University of Leicester "Ankit Panda's The New Nuclear Age impresses with its meticulous research, incisive analysis and chilling relevance. This sobering yet accessible work delivers a stark message: relying on nuclear deterrence in today's 'third nuclear age' is the worst option, except for all the others... a must-read." Survival "This timely book delves into a host of issues connected to nuclear weapons, with conclusions that are, to say the least, disturbing. ... A cogent, careful look at a crucial challenge." Table of Contents: Acknowledgments Introduction 1. Slouching Toward a New Nuclear Age 2. From Terror, Peace 3. Technology and Escalation 4. The New Nuclear Disorder 5. Nuclear Flashpoints 6. What To Do About the Bomb? Notes Publisher Marketing: The world is entering a new nuclear age. Nuclear weapons are returning to the fore of international statecraft in ways unseen since the Cold War. With major powers like Russia issuing threats of nuclear strikes, China and North Korea continuing to grow their arsenals, and new prospects for proliferation from the Middle East to East Asia, the world has been thrust into a new era of heightened nuclear risk. In this incisive book, international security expert Ankit Panda explores the enduring and emerging factors that are contributing to this new nuclear age. From strained great power ties to complex multipolar dynamics and the precipitous decline of arms control, he shows how our coexistence with the bomb is becoming more complicated and perilous. The prospect of nuclear escalation is again shaping how political decision-makers and military establishments around the world think and act. But unlike the peril of the Cold War, a greater number of nuclear players and a plethora of new technologies, including AI and exotic new weapons, make the search for stability far from straightforward. Managing the risks of a nuclear confrontation, he argues, will require new urgency and thinking to pull us back from the precipice of global catastrophe.
